Big changes are on the way for Cadillac. The brand recently gained a seasoned leader with the appointment of Johan De Nysschen as its president, while plenty of rumors suggest Cadillac will bolster its portfolio with new models from the top to the bottom of its lineup. Our friends at Automobile recently chatted with a few Cadillac executives during Monterey Car Week for some insight into future cars like the next-generation ATS and a rear-drive flagship sedan.

The effort to add an entry-level car to slot below the ATS seems to be picking up steam. Cadillac chief engineer Dave Leone told Automobile that the brand has no desire to offer a front-drive car, despite the relative success of the Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class. That leaves Cadillac with few options, though building a smaller and cheaper car based on the ATS and CTS’ Alpha platform is a possibility. Leone also hints that the next-gen ATS could grow a bit in size, while offering better packaging that should result in a roomier cabin. Look for the arrival of the ATS-V in the near future.

We should also expect more news on Caddy’s new rear-drive flagship sedan, codenamed “LTS.” Prototypes of the LTS have already been spotted testing on public roads and Leone promises that power will come from a V-8, though a turbocharged V-6 or I-4 isn’t completely out of the picture.

The report states that a production version of the El Miraj concept is still up in the air, as is the future of the plug-in electric ELR. Speaking of green cars, Leone points out one advantage Cadillac has over its competitors when it comes to meeting future fuel efficiency standard. The Escalade, by the way, is selling well and won’t be going anywhere anytime soon. He also discusses a few areas where Cadillac needs to improve and how the current leadership with de Nysschen at the helm is a definitely upgrade for the brand.
